Hey all, let me see if I can explain this. When I'm done driving, and I open the driver door, the dome light does not come on. Or when you turn off the engine, the radio stays on until a door is opened, then the radio turns off and the lights come on. Well that only works on the passenger side...

I am currently doing an interior change of my 93 Mark. I pulled out all of the the gray interior in place of black interior. Taking out the dash was really a pain in the ass. I am actually glad that I am doing it. It is truly a learning experience for me. While I am at it, I took the blend door...

OK everyone I have some HID's for sale. They came out of a totaled 96 LSC. Now let me tell you about this. It seems that insurance companies are totalling these Marks more and more. I was looking at it and wondering why it was totalled. Only hit in the passenger quarter. So try not to get your...

While changing the blend door this weekend, I inadvertantly pulled out the yellow vacuum line. Now all of my air is blowing through the defroster. Since I have everything buttoned up, do I have to pull everything back out to reconnect that line? Or can I reach it and connect it with my hand?

I had my Mark diagnosed today, and received a code 214. Cylinder ID Circuit Fault. My symptoms are as follows: During normal driving from 35 to 55mph the Check Engine light comes on. When I come to a stop at a Stop sign or a light, the Check Engine Light goes out. Also, when I am travelling on...

This is my 93 Mark VIII. It has 42000 miles on it. I bought it from a little old lady from Pasedena....Texas (No Pun Intended) When I happened on this car, the transmission had given out, and the bags had severe leaks. I paid $1500 for the car, then immediately sent it to the transmission...

Ok, this is for the guys like myself who love their Marks and want to keep them pretty much stock. I'm for some gradual mods, like exhausts, cold air induction, things like that. Last week, I had to buy tires, and I was torn between going with a wider tire, or to keep it stock. I ask you guys...

I don't know if this is ever been done on a grand scale, but I propose we have a yearly Mark VIII convention. I know there is Carlile, but that is nothing but Fords. What do you think? I think we have enough members to get something like this going. I also own a Gen II SHO, and the guys at...

I just replace my rear shocks on my 93 yesterday. Once I got the car up in the air, and pulled back the carpet in the trunk to access the top mounts, I noticed the electrical connectors on top of the shocks. It seems that the factory shocks has a hollow center with some sort of electrical...

I have a 93 Mark. I was planning to do the upper and lower control arm replacement later. But I may have involuntarily moved it up. Yesterday I was going to the supermarket. They happen to be widening the road by the Market. I went into a whole pretty deep while getting into the parking lot. Now...

I just had my heater core replaced recently. Now, when I turn on my ac by pressing the Auto button, air comes out of the bottom, and not through the vents. When I press Max AC, it works great, and blows through the vents. Also, when I raise the temperature to 90 degrees, it does not get hot. Any...
